Eric Holder Hires Best And Brightest Of Democrat Party

The PJ Tatler has obtained documents from the Justice Department detailing efforts to recruit attorneys and staff who are dwarfs or who have “psychiatric disabilities”
or “severe intellectual disabilities.” On May 31, 2012, Assistant
Attorney General Tom Perez issued a directive to affirmatively recruit
people with these “targeted disabilities.”
This DOJ policy does not merely involve prohibitions against discrimination, but rather the documents reveal deliberate recruitment efforts
to hire as attorneys and staff for the Department of Justice people
suffering from psychiatric disorders and intellectual disabilities.
Moreover, applicants can “self-identify” their disability by means of
the “Standard Form 256, Self Identification Disability.”
Those with “targeted disabilities” may be hired through a
“non-competitive” appointment. That means they don’t have to endure the
regular civil service competition among applicants, but can be plucked
from the stack of resumes and hired immediately instead.
According to the documents,
those with these “targeted disabilities” may be hired “before the
position is advertised” and even “before the position’s closing date.”
Moreover, lawyers with psychiatric disabilities and “severe
intellectual” disabilities receive a waiver from the requirement that a
new DOJ employee have practiced law for one year before being hired.
You can read the detailed Civil Rights Division “Hiring of Persons With Targeted Disabilities Policy” memo here.
You can also read PJ Media’s full report on the attorneys hired for
the Justice Department Civil Rights Division from 2009-2010 here in the
Every Single One series.
Speaking of preferences, here is another document, the entire “Operational Diversity Management Plan,” obtained by PJ Media. It should be fascinating to those interested in racial preferences in government policy.
